No internet available, safe and reliable – but I’m removed fast.
I’m experiencing some problems with my computer right now. When I try to join my home network, it shows no internet connection and disconnects abruptly—like when I hover over the internet icon in the taskbar. But when I connect to my mobile hotspot, everything works smoothly. This suggests the issue isn’t with the network card itself, but something else is preventing a stable connection. Sorry if this isn’t the right place, but I thought this might fit your situation.
When you access your home network and execute ipconfig /all, it displays details about your network configuration such as IP addresses, default gateway, DNS servers, and more. It shows whether your IP is valid and provides information about connectivity settings. However, if DNS servers are missing or your clock is incorrect, the system might display errors like no internet access or connection failures.
Sorry for the delayed reply; I've been quite occupied over the past couple of days. In short, the system is showing a valid IP, default gateway, and DNS server. It claims internet access when hovering over the WiFi indicator in the taskbar, but websites fail to resolve and anything needing an internet connection doesn't work properly. This seems unusual. While I was writing this, it has now switched back to No Internet again. The issue continues. Any suggestions on how to resolve it?
Restarting the computer helps confirm if the problem is temporary. You might try installing another operating system to see if it resolves the issue. If the error remains, it could point to hardware or network problems. When the error disappears, it usually indicates a Windows-related fault.
I haven't created a manual for this, but it seems this problem has occurred often enough that a brief guide might be useful. You can try using Rufus with an 8GB or larger thumb drive. Install Rufus, then insert the USB and follow the steps: download the Linux ISO, select it, install on the drive, restart, and boot from USB. Just press "Try Ubuntu" to get started.
